Dental insurance plans are designed to share in the cost of your dental care, not to completely pay for those costs. Your dental coverage is not determined by your dental needs but by the agreement negotiated by your employer with the insurer. If you have a personal individual dental plan, your benefits are based on your specific plan. We are not responsible for how your insurance company handles a claim or for the amount that they pay or do not pay on a claim.
Bearable Dentistry is committed to helping you keep a healthy and beautiful smile for a lifetime. We take care to explain your treatment options and answer all of your questions. We will also explain all fees associated with treatment prior to the procedure.
